The gameplay in Deleted Scenes is very different to that of a traditional Counter-Strike multiplayer game and has more similarities to the gameplay of e.g. Half-Life. This is a linear shooter where missions have to be completed in a set sequence. Also, the story of the maps is told in forms of cut scenes that occur at the start or the end of the mission. Additional scripted sequences that occur mid-mission provided further narrative.

Most missions consist of several maps that the player will have to play through in order to finish the mission. There are occasional puzzles which may involve breaking an obstacle or finding a way around an obstacle. Often of these puzzles involve the use of the new mission specific equipment. Some of the missions also climax in the form of a boss fight, which may involve destroying or defending some form of an aircraft or vehicle.

In this game there is no concept of money. Instead the player starts missions with specific weapons and equipment. Additional weapons and ammunition may be found from the maps themselves. Unlike many traditional linear shooters, defeated enemies do not drop ammunition or weapons. There are also both health and Kevlar restoration options available in Deleted Scenes. Moreover, the power of players' Kevlar armor is boosted, better protecting players from many projectiles and bullets.

While team mates or squad members are occasionally present, most of the game is played as a lone wolf without the presence of team mates. Also on the occasion that team mates are present, their effectiveness will prove quite limited.
